Debate continues to grow over right-of-way plantings
Shorewood — Forced into paying attention to a practice that has gone on for at least 80 years, the Village Board continues to struggle to find a solution to planting in public rights of ways.
Residents lobby for re-route
Shorewood — Boulevard residents continued to lobby the village this week, asking a village committee to consider re-routing bus traffic anywhere but on their street during the reconstruction of Capitol Drive this spring and summer. Village Manager Chris Swartz contacted the Milwaukee Country Transit System asking for more information on ridership and bus stops for route 62, the route in question, after two residents questioned the proposal last month.
